I'm going to guess there's some sort of character transfer, but it probably won't bring levels/items considering this is apparently a new world.

After watching that trailer, the big guy on the right near the end (in the group of three) is decidedly not a Galka - the tail isn't long enough to trip Tarus with.

If they stay true to the franchise, i'd say goodbye to Vana'diel right now. I'm sure it will be a brand new world, with a familiar battle system. I just hope they took what they learned from FF XI, and built off of it.



P.S. Kudos to SE for actually keeping us in the dark about this. Speculation does not count.



This.


FFXI is an amazing game built on a foundation of fail. Only over the last year have they finally begun to turn the game into what it should have been from the beginning, I can only hope they learned from everything they saw and did here and adjust their next game accordingly.

I've always wished FFXI had been created by a company that seemed to love it's players the way blizzard does...with the amazing ffxi gameplay and story though.
Here's hoping for FFXIV!

I just had a freaking baby

I really hope that this is true, and that they have not only stayed true to their RPG style and form, but also have devised a way to link the two worlds.

Well, this was a unexpected surprise! I've been waiting for a replacement for my FFXI addiction.... who'd have thunk it come from SE lol. Well, regardless, glad I finally bought a PS3, which I've til now regarded as an overpriced Bluray player.

I just Sony doesn't ***** the pooch like they did when FFXI was released on the PS2... and then they removed HD support on the new redesigned PS2's

I wonder if there will be a beta. I doubt it, but one can hope.

Well, if characters cannot be transferred from FFXI to FFXIV, then at the very least I would hope that all 20 of the current jobs in FFXI will be available in FFXIV along with some new ones for us to play with. (Necromancer anyone?)

No no transfers or item to new MMO, meaning its a FRESH game, everyone starts from scratch. No cheating please.

Well they did specifically say the only consol, anyone think it will be on PC also? technically its not a consol and if square is semi rational they wont cut out PC players... PC players are like 80% of the MMO Fanbase.

You'd just have to give it a month or so.

Oh hell, now I have to buy a PS3.

Much sexiness, and geez, who'd have though those gameplayer people were right.

They said "CONSOLE EXCLUSIVE", a PC is not a console so yes it will come on PC ;D

I really hope there is no character transfer. I'm looking for a fresh start,
with new jobs, crafts, whatnot. I hope this is a completely different game than FFXI.

SE at e3 is tomorrow, right? I hope there's more shown.

Also, for people interested in watching Sony press conference, it's being streamed http://vidya-revolution.com/ among other places.

Might need to build a new PC rig when this comes out like I did with 11.

Why are people hoping for more of thee same from a NEW MMO.


It's not like ffxi died... yet.

I don't see any reason to play this yet, so my guess is doing whatever they were up to before.

Did you see the Tarutaru in the FFXIV trailer?

No? The future is looking better already...

Ya I really hope that it isn't Ps3 *exclusive*. While I wouldn't mind getting another Sony product (And I am kind of glad that SE is going back to their longtime partnership with Sony and only giving them this one), I won't be able to play for quite some time, at least until I can scrounge up a little cash for a Ps3.

Did anyone else have to literally wipe away a few tears at the end of that trailer?

When FFXI first came out in Japan, I believe it was PS2 exclusive, then PC support was added shortly after. I doubt SE will cut out such a large playerbase as PC users.

To be honest I'm not sure how character transfers could work. It would make no sense to transfer over characters with level 75 jobs. Transfer over and go straight to end game on day 1? That won't happen.

The best you could get would just be the naked characters coming over to play as level 1 but they wouldn't use the same dated Ps2 character models. So in essence you'd get new looking characters with no previous baggage. So it's not really transferring over.

SO excited right now but need more info, almost postive that FF14 is Rapture, and from what I heard PS3 and Vista computers will support it.

Need more info, but SO excited!


I'm sure it'll be for Windows (meaning XP, Vista, Win7) and not just Vista.



I hope so!! I've just only heard Vista but it would be awesome if they let all versions of windows use it! =D
